OBNAMENTAL GLASS-WORK.

Specication of Letters Patent.

Patented July 25, 1911.

' Application filed August 5, 1910. Serial No. 575,810.

To all whom 'it may concern:

Be it known that we, CHARLES HENRI KLosTER and FREDERIC GEORGES BLA'r'rER, both residents of 17 3 Edward Charles street, in the city and district of Montreal, in the Province of Quebec, in the Dominion of Canada, citizens of the Republic of France, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Ornamental Glass-Work, of which the following is a specification.

The invention relates to improvements in ornamental glasswork, as described in the present specication and illustra-ted in the accompanying drawings that form part of the same.

The invention consists essentially of the novel construction and arrangement whereby a great Variety of designs are made by introducing between two plates of glass in the form of a design, a eat numberof l particles of suitable material and securing said particles firmly in place.

The objects of the invention are to produce at a reasonable cost highly ornate designs in glasswork for windows, panels, and other purposes, and generally to devise a simple and effective glass ornamentation.

- In the drawings, Figure lis a plan view of a portion of a glass panel showing the covering Vplate of glass, partially broken away. Fig. -2 is an enlarged cross sectional View of a portion of two plates of glass, showing the particles therebetween.

Like numerals of reference indicate corresponding parts in each figure.

Referring to the drawi s, 1 is the base plate of lass or other suita le material.

2 are eads referably of colored glass and strung on t e Wires 3, said wires be' stained a suitable color to correspond wit the color of the beads and arranged in the design which it is intended shall be shown, said strings of beads being attached to the base plate 1 by a suitable adhesive, preferably a transparent glue.

4 are particles preferably lof colored glass and fillin in the space bounded by the said strings o beads, said particles being attached to the base plate 1 and to one another by asuitable adhesive, such as transparent 0 ue.

5 indicates an imitation of a vein of a leaf preferably madeof a sliver of metal or of iine wire, though it may be of any suitable material.

Generally it must be understood that the 'particles,'beads, veins or other parts making up the design may be of any material which will lend itself to ornamentation, the salient feature in this part of the invention being the mounting and attaching of the said materials on a glass plate in the form of a suitable design.

6 is a cover plate of glass or suitable transparent material and extending over the said b ase plate and consequently over the deslgn.

7 is a felt filling strip between the glass plates l and 6, adjacent to the edge thereof and of a thickness correspondingt-o the size of the beads 2.

' 8 is a binding of any suitable material around the edges of the plates 1 and 6.

The plates l and 6 shall, of course, in almost every instance be made of glass, both transparent, but it may be that in some designs, one plate may be opaque, that is the base plate, or partially opaque to suit the design, and further other transparent mate-- rial than glass may be used, however, as aforesaid, the most practical form of the invention will always be that where two transparent plates of glass are used.

What we claim as our invention is:

The combination, with a glass plate, of an outline of stringed glass beads secured by suit-able adhesive to the plate, and a filling of glass particles within the outline formed by the stringed beads, also secured by adhesive to the plate, and metal slivers embedded in said filling to represent Veins.
